Without tracing back the link, can anyone name this car? It is a make and model that I have NEVER heard of. And that's rare.

Looks kind of like a Crosley, but it's a little too big for that. It also looks like it seriously needs an Ecoboost crate motor and a 5-speed.

That's a 1963 Kickass Awesomewagon Kinderhauler Mk II

I'd weld patches into the back two windows and roll it as a delivery wagon.

Brain says Volvo Amazon. Your clue tells me it is not, because clearly everyone has heard of the Amazon, if not Volvo.

The front area makes me think hillman, but the back seems too boxy

I think you are right. 1961? Borgward Hansa Combi Wagon

Parts for that would be a bear, I'd think.

Looks like a 5/8ths scale Ranch Wagon.

Sorry, it was a 1960 Borgward Goliath Combi Wagon, not a Borgward Hansa Combi Wagon. But getting Borgward correct was worth 999 out of 1000 points, so you are still a winner!

This is a '60 Golith and the side trim is different.

Borgward made a van also that was pretty cool.

And the Coupe

I found one of those (the OP) in some woods on a site I was walking that crushed to oblivion. Funny thing is parked behind a residence near a border of that same site was an old Shelby Mustang.
